Has anybody experienced stiffness when sleeping?!


Question:

Has anybody experienced stiffness when sleeping?

It's been quite several times now that I experience a non-movement while sleeping. I fell asleep then suddenly I felt that my entire body went to freeze (No dreaming). I tried to wake up but my body won't move. While I could breath, I couldn't even open my eyes or simply move my finger. Often time I have to struggle for couple of minutes before I could come alive again.
It happened not once or twice but often.
Does anybody know what's happened?


Answers:

Normally the brain inhibits bodily movement when you are asleep (so you don't act out your dreams). You seem to be waking up before the brain lets go
